CCleaner • What is it? What does it do? • It’s a way of removing temporary files from your machine. Many applications save data into temporary files, which take up space on your drive. Eventually they get deleted, but in the meantime they can slow the machine down.
Recuva • What is it? What does it do? • It’s a way of recovering deleted files on your computer. When you delete a file, it’s not (usually) immediately replaced; instead, the file is marked for deletion, which means that your computer is now free to put other information in that space. Recuva can change that data back into a regular file, provided that it hasn’t yet been overwritten.
